As I said in my previous post the view from Robbie's Hide at Fingringhoe Wick was fairly quiet with very few waders on the mud with the entertainment being provided by the dozen or so Shelduck feeding close in to the shore.
I was clicking away when they suddenly stopped feeding, straightened their necks, and started to walk away from the shore. What was going on? My first thoughts was a Fox emerging from cover and walking out onto the shore so I looked round and saw the culprit, not a Fox but a stunning male Marsh Harrier just 30 yards to the left of the hide. Just how good is that?
Luckily my settings were about right and I started taking shots on rapid fire as it flew lazily along the shore in front of the hide, staring down at the ground as it went. Couldn't believe my luck.
Here is the full sequence.
